Bus Éireann services to operate today

Management and union representatives will try to find an alternative way to secure cost savings at Bus ÉireannThe dispute centres on a proposal to introduce a €5 million cost-cutting plan

Bus Éireann services will operate today after management and unions last night agreed to "pull back" for 48 hours in a bid to resolve the bus strike.

For the last two days, Bus Éireann services have been paralysed due to a strike by members of the National Bus and Rail Union in response to cost reduction measures introduced without agreement on Sunday.

Both sides accepted an invitation to attend the Labour Relations Commission last evening.
